You have asserted my claim that house is a libertarian autocrat and not a authoritarian dictator is untrue yet provided nothing to back it up but deriding statements.
House is not an expansionist empire, he is not unyielding in power and control. The major reason the strip is fucked up is he gives the three families his vassals too much freedom and power to self govern. Everyone on the strip is an employee or a customer he doesn't have true subjects. He leaves them all to their own devices unless it impacts his master plan. House is an autocratic ruler his prepensidency to negotiate in most areas sets him apart from the likes of Caesar (Edward Sallow), or Elder Maxim, or the Overseer's of vaults, all dictators of one type or another but not the same beast. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nolan_Chart
